So wait, we're just going to have a big '3' on our chests? That's....kinda cool, actually.

United are after the dude Trump just assassinated with a drone strike? Damn, they really are desperate!

The January window has been made completely useless now. At this point it's essentially just used as a means to get rid of fringe players in your squad. Even clubs that are ravaged by injury and are desperate for CL football aren't buying. It's quite possible that we could end this window with none of Chelsea, United, or Arse signing a single player. That's insane to me considering the situations each of these clubs are in.

In other words, "there's no value in January." The Wenger rule. We ain't singing anyone.

They've got 3 solid strikers on their books and are still pushing hard for Cavani. We've got 1 (who's injured currently) and are fucking around as we enter a hellish fixture list.

What a turn around in fortunes for Wolves this season. They were awful in the early stages and people already started calling Nuno a fraud. Now they're back to their brilliant best. They, like Leicester, may lose to the likes of Liverpool and City but can compete with anyone. Raul Jimenez is surely a £80m+ striker now and I can see numerous big PL clubs testing Wolves for him soon. Both Manchester clubs namely.

Dortmund are one of, if not THE most savvy club in Europe. You honestly believe they'd insert a €60m release clause in the contract of one of the most sought after young players in the world? 😂😂😂 Sounds like bullshit and terrible business. He/his agent likely did insist that there's a set release clause. But it's probably like 200m. He's probably got his eyes on Real Madrid in a couple of years.

Don't know who would be pissed off more in that scenario, Giroud, the Chelsea fans, or Lamps who drops hint after hint that we need a new forward.

I just worry about him on every corner, every set play, and every time our opponent has the ball on the flanks to swing in crosses becasue of his height and obvious fear of coming out to claim anything in the air. Add to that our insistence on stupid zonal marking on corners and super high line on set plays and it's no wonder we concede so many. I just don't belive he's a shit keeper as is the common assessment on Twitter. He was great last season. Once we get Reece + a new and improved LB as well as a settled CB pairing I think we'll see great Kepa again.

I'm not nearly as down on him as most seem to be. I'm more angry at the clownish defensive errors and set piece coaching that repeatedly happen in front of him. He has a couple of very clear weaknesses due to his size. You would think we'd be trying to do everything we can to shield him from situations where his seize comes in to play. If we had a better defense in front of him I'm confident he'd come good again.

If anything does happen you would think there would be some urgency. Are we going to wait until after another poor result or two? Any new player is going to take a bit to settle in as well.

So who is even left as a possibility? Dembele himself says he's staying. Cavani looks off to Madrid. Doesn't look like there's anything left out there that could slot right in and help us.

I've heard it mentioned by multiple commentary teams this season. Can't blame them most of the time, but yeah.

Emerson is pretty much in the exact same boat as Alonso now. Keep him in the final third and he's dangerous and a weapon. Puts in dangerous crosses in open play and his delivery from corners was great. But he has been totally shit defensively. The one area I always thought he was better than Marcos at. But nope. I'd sell both.

We dominated and easily controlled the game when they had 11 men. CHO was roasting their left side repeatedly. What do we do after scoring and going up a man? COMPLETELY ABANDON THAT ADVANTAGE ON THE RIGHT SIDE! What's most alarming about us right now is I don't even know how we fix ourselves. Can't do it through the transfer market because the top players aren't available. Our backup strikers are horrific. Pulisic is out for weeks. With Mount off the boil we have zero goal threat from midfield. Seriously, what's the remedy here? It simply looks like we have to just hope and pray that United and Wolves remain as shit as we do. We clearly don't have the capacity to grab this 4th spot by the neck.

We've reached the point where it takes us a million attempts to score a goal while it only takes our opponents 1 attempt for us to concede. We are an extremely mentally weak team. Any sort of adversity at all and we crumble. Murderous row of fixtures continues and now without Tammy I don't see where the goals will possibly come from.

I feel like I've said this a dozen times THIS SEASON ALONE, but that was the most embarrassing performance from a Chelsea team I've EVER seen. And against THAT fucking club as well. Fucking disgusting.

This is getting ridiculous now. KEEP THE FUCKING BALL!!!!

Letting them get the odd counter attack when they've got 10 men is one thing. We let them control possession and get several dangerous attacks there. It's just not acceptable for me.

Our players are morons if they think this game was over after that red card. Which they clearly did. Only a matter of time before Pepe skins Emerson again. He looks terrified of getting close to him. We 100% need another goal for this to be comfortable. Which is embarrassing.

We're making Arse look better with 10 men than they did with 11, ffs. Cant get the fucking ball!

Assuming we come out with purpose and balls, I like the midfield and attack. It's the back 4 I'm shitting myself about. At least Azpi is in his actual position today I guess.

Damn, Reece didn't make it. 😣 Feeling very nervous here.

Hopefully we don't start off getting battered by them like we did a few weeks ago before Lamps made the Jorginho change. Aubameyang was huge for them early in that game with his high pressing so good that he's out. I pray that Kovacic starts in place of Mount.

I doubt any deal will be a loan. He'd probably get a 2 year deal or 1 year with option to extend like Giroud. For a short term injection of quality for a season or two we could do a LOT worse.
